About us

 

Seamless Property Settlements. Local. Personal. Reliable.

 

At Byford Settlements, we make property settlements simple, stress-free, and personal – whether
you’re a first home buyer, downsizing, investing, or selling your family home.
We’re a trusted, family-run settlement agency based in Byford, proudly servicing Western Australia
and clients nationwide. With over 50 years of combined conveyancing experience, our team
provides clear guidance, legal precision, and real peace of mind throughout the entire settlement
process.
Founded over 20 years ago by Julie Shuttleworth, the business is now owned and operated by the
next generation. We’ve recently transformed a local residential property into our fully zoned,
purpose-built office – and gone fully paperless using the latest conveyancing systems. It’s a modern
approach built on old-fashioned care.

Why We’re Different

We’re not a bulk-processing settlement mill and we’re not so small we miss your calls.

We hit the sweet spot:

We’re based in Byford but handle settlements across WA.

Our systems are efficient, secure, and designed to make your life easier.

You’re kept informed at every stage of your property transfer or sale.

You’ll always speak with someone who knows your file.

We treat every file like our own, because we know what’s at stake.

We handle the complexity so you can focus on what matters.

Our clients – from young families to retirees – trust us because we make a complicated process feel simple.

And real estate agents refer to us because they know we’ll deliver – every time.

Why Clients and Agents Trust Us

Get in touch

Clients and agents trust us because we combine over 50 years of conveyancing experience with a hands-on, people-first approach. We don’t just complete settlements we explain them, safeguard them, and keep them moving without stress. Every file is handled with care, checked by multiple team members, and delivered with the accuracy you’d expect from professionals who treat it like their own. Whether it’s a family home, land sale, or first property purchase, we bring clarity, confidence, and consistency and that’s why so many people come back or refer others.
